Who likes Gadgets and Technology

Please dont mistake this for my Profile Pic


Pick me.

Geeks have changed. I guess you could call me a geek but i dont fit the mould that people seem to think a geek is or in most cases was.

We dont all wear pocket protectors and stand around the water cooler debating whether Kirk was the best commander of the Enterprise or if the Star Wars movies are based on fact or whether Stanley Tweedle is the Best choice for commander of the Lexx.

I love Technology as much as i love sport. Im 6 foot 5 inches tall and weigh 120kg. Im not afraid of spiders and love beer. Hell gimme some raw meat and ill eat it faster than Bear Grills can chew on a tree frog.

My point is Geeks are IN.

According to MSNBC geeks are the new chic....chicks dig us...

I still have friends that are shit scared of Computers and technology in general and i just sit there and think of all the things they are missing out on. They arent so much stuck in the past but more missing out on the future. Sure the "Good ol days" were just that ...good, but the now is soo not worth missing out on.

If i was to say Android most of my friends would thing of R2D2 or C3PO not the HOT Google phone, a Mac is a hamburger, spam horrible tin meat and Ram is something you do when your on a Dodgem car.

Sometimes im sure people think im talking a different language and most times I decide not to ask things like " So who here listens to the TwiT Podcast" just because the sound of crickets can be deafening. Is not just the guys that are geeks, there are plenty of Geekgirls out there as well and its only a matter of time till we take over the world. Gadgets and Tech stuff is great, the fact that you are reading this means that you yourself are part geek....dont hide it or try to push it away, we are evolving. Embrace it, you know you want to.

Matthew once said "The Meek shall inherit the earth"

Im sure he was misquoted :)
